I have a problem -- just bought a computer at SAM's Club, an HP with Windows Vista Home Premium, fresh out of the box, but when I got it home and set it all up and loaded on data from an old computer I found out it had what I believe is a hidden user account already on it. There was an email account for "Bill" somebody (I deleted that email acct and set up a new one for my wife - it's her computer), and when I try to link to this computer from mine using Windows Explorer, looking at her computer on the Network, instead of seeing the account I set up for "Julie" I still see the files listed under the user "Bill". I'm worried this guy set up some secret way to access the computer. I think probably not, but I don't know. And, even if not, I'd like to delete the "Bill" account. 2 questions ... 1) should I return this computer? Am I in danger of someone having left some kind of "backdoor" to get into the computer? If not, how do I get rid of the hidden "Bill" user account?
new pc with windows mail and cannot set up. receive this error message.The host 'outgoing verizon.net' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly.

I have a Windows Live Mail account and a Yahoo account and they both show up on the left hand side of my Window Live Mail account so I can choose which account I want to use or, for example, which inbox to look in. At the bottom, also on the left hand side of my Windows Live Mail account, it shows 'Add e-mail account', which is what I want to do with a new 'AOL' account and I want it to show on the left hand side like the two other accounts.
So I made a new AOL e-mail account, clicked 'Add e-mail account' at the bottom of my 'Windows Live Account', then I put in my new AOL e-mail account and password where it showed me. Then I clicked next.
The next page was all about my email server. When I did this before with a new e-mail account, it was all filled out automatically for me, but this time, all the blanks were left open and I have no idea what to fill in. I believe once I have this information, the AOL e-mail account will automatically then show on the left hand pane of my Windows Live Mail account below the other two accounts.
I want to set up my e-mail account on Windows Vista Home Premium. I use earthlink as my provider. When asked about POP3 and SMTP, I don't know where to access that info. I think POP3 is where it's at, but where can I find the other. This is so frustrating because this info should be close at hand.
We bought a Sony laptop running Vista home for my father and set it up for him. Unfortunately he died before he could use it, so I have inherited it. It was distressing seeing his name all over the thing, so I created a new user account in my name, logged in as that and then deleted the old account in his name. A warning did come up saying that he was still logged in and some data may be lost, but as there wasn't much there I went ahead anyway. All the files under his account had disappeared (including one or two I realised i wanted) as had all his settings and even some software setups. Nothing in the recycle bin; I have run a couple of lost file recovery programs which only find files that have been consciously deleted. Where have his files gone?
We bought a new laptop yesterday. Until now we both had our own. So we both have our own stuff we want to move there. We set up two accounts, both with admistrator permissions. But we would like those accounts to not "work" together. Like for example, we don't want our pictures, music etc to be seen from the other ones account. But now it does. We both want to put them to the D drive and only see our own stuff. Because it gets really confusing with the amount of stuff we have. So when I go somewhere, I only want to see the things I have put there, not his things. How do we do this? Also I noticed that if he or I remove something from the desktop, it goes away from the other account as well. That is really not something I want. I want the accounts to sort of work like two different computers.

When I click on a new message and try to delet it move it to folder or spam I get a message that says an unknown error has occurred. MY email is also not moving things automatically to spam as I hhad it set up.
The thing about that is that i am using Wi-Fi. So i don't think that i am able to get that info...Is there anything i can do? You can get all of the email account setup information from your emailprovider, usually your ISP (Internet Service Provider). They should have a webpage on their support site for how to setup and email account in Outook Express with full instructions on how to do it. Windows Mail uses the same settings. If you can tell us who your email provider is, someone should be able to post a link to their email account setup instructions webpage for you.
I tried to set my email up on Windows mail using, gmail accounts, gmx and everything you could think. I worked on it for days but nothing ever worked. I'm pretty sure I put in the right POP and all. What else can I do? Does Gmail and gmx and all not work on a mail server on the actual desktop
I have two pc's that both run Windows Mail. They have identical setups and use the same email account. The desktop works properly but the Toshiba laptop cannot send emails. Both pc's run McAfee Antivirus. I have tried disabling the the antivirus on the laptop but am still unable to send mail. Problem started when we downloaded Vista updates on 06/13/08.

I cannot set-up my email account. I have Verizon FIOS, and use a yahoo mail account from my Yahoo home page but would rather use Microsoft mail. My hard drive crashed and now I am trying to reinstall and configure my mail again, but everything I input under POP3 amd SMTP appears to be wrong.
Referring to Microsoft Mail on Vista computer: I have two email accounts using MS Mail. A is my default account, B is not. When mail is sent to my B account, I can't reply to it. It sits in outbox with an error message. I can only reply to mail sent to A, the default account. Is there a way to set it up so I can reply to mail using both accounts?

My spouse passed away & rather than go to their computer I would like to be able to check their e-mail from my computer. When I set it up (exactly as my account is set up) on my computer I get An account already exists with this name, please enter a unique friendly name. I know their password. Is there anything I may have over looked?
